Our May 13 Invest in Marion meeting was awesome with the women of the WBC nominating many worthwhile charities. The one drawn out of the basket was Marion Junior Service Guild’s Christmas Clearinghouse! Congratulations!

On hand to accept the $500 check were WBC members (L to R) Bev Young, Tarina Rose, Diane Morgan and WBC board president Kathie Reed Seckel.

The WBC was so very honored to present Maggie Breeding (left, in red) of the Boys and Girls Club of Marion County with a check for $6,000. The Boys and Girls Club was the chosen charity of Major Christy Utley (second from left), our 2019 Athena Award recipient.

$6,000!!! Woo Hoo!!! Isn’t that awesome! Of that, $3,500 was raised by the Silent Auction at the Athena event … thank you so very much to everyone who donated items, time and effort … and all those who bid and purchased a basket. $2,500 was a donation match by Modern Woodmen of America … thank you so much for your ongoing support of the Athena event.
